I don't care if there is a partition or not.

My bathroom pet peeves:

Middle stall pissers - There are usually 3 stand up urinals. If no one is there, you don't take the middle one.

Talkers - When I'm holding my johnson, you can say hello but I don't want to have a conversation.

Slobs- One day I'm going to find out who pisses all over the floor at work and take a pic on my phone and post it.

The BBC were talking about this today too. There are apparently some heat-sensitive stickers for schoolboy toilets that turn into smiley faces if they hit them.

Smiley toilets
What are the odds that some find themselves being stuck on walls?
i think my dorm needs those stickers...nasty :eek: :eek:
 
I never quite understood the point of urinals anyway, is it convenience or something? I just don't see the appeal of walking up to one, upzipping the pants, whipping it out and taking a piss all in what is quite a public place. Maybe its because I loathe public bathrooms in general, ugh...

I've always assumed it was a space thing when planning buildings. You need more room for women's toilets since cubicles take up more space and there are legal rules (at least in the UK on how many have to be provided)

I guess that it means you can fit in men's toilets in more compact areas since you might be able to get away with 3 urinals and a single cubicle? ;) Of course, not having been in many gents, this is pure speculation and they could all be spacious luxurious heavens...;)

Having been in a few gents myself, I can definitely say that's far from the truth. ;) As a matter of fact, in the bathrooms at a hotel I went to once, the women's had an entire separate room complete with mirrors and couches as compared to the men's which was simply a bathroom. The lengths people will go to take a piss these days. :rolleyes:

Is there anything stopping you from turning 'round and bombing the crap out of this thing? Pun not intended.


Bastard, I just spewed chewed up Oreos all over my KB.

Don't laugh. I visited South Korea this last year and public bathrooms have a hole in the ground instead of a proper toilet. The western style hotels had a toilet, but if you needed to go outside of the hotel - say at a gas station or rest stop - well, I'll resists saying what kind of luck you were out of!

My wife refused to use them. I called them "sh*tinals." She hit me every time.

She needs to use them more often then. Practice makes perfect.

Unless of course, she was aiming for you... :(

Damn, you're quick!

It's really my fault for hanging out in the ladies room anyway. :D

It is a good thing I never eat or drink while reading these forums or my keyboard and display would have chunks of food all over - and in - them.
 
This isn't near as fun, but funny to see anyway. I have seen the plastic target butt-strainers in pub urinals, and they work...on me anyway. With the exception of the start and the stopping, I get a sustained bullseye everytime.

Yea... they are called eastern toilets and are everywhere if you go to asia and eastern europe. They are very smart ideas as you do not dirty a seat and therefore you are not sitting where someone elses butt was. Its also probably faster as you pull down, squat... rinse... and walk away.
